As a long term investor, i dont believe in January effect. My main concern is how much dividends i m generating from my SG counters end of the year. When i felt the time is right, i will DCA my current counters. In dec, i just DCA one of my Reits counter. The last time i was active in my SG counters were in Aug 2020. Then in nov 2021, i was trying my luck in US counters with Tigers. On Friday, i just DCA $Bank of America(BAC)$ as i have some cash with Tigers. My holding in Tiger is a tiny fraction of my Poems account. This year i m back to being active in SG counters as i have set a goal for myself. . Hope my dream will come true. 🙏🙏🙏. I m building up my passive income.

The Jan effect is caused by negative news such as market sentiment on the Fed's cutting rate, US economy, etc.,, but the market can turn rally if the market situation improved. This Jan effect can happen in Fed or March, any month of the year if the primary concerns remain. My Jan's 1st week portfolio is more red than green. In short term strategy, waiting for the next few trading opportunities to make the portfolio less red and greener. .

Nice

Base ok trend usually Jan is slow. Which is quite normal

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ yes, I believe 

I believe but however there are alots of contributing factors. perhaps January effect may continue, then again, perhaps not... my portfolio is in red for the first trading week in 2024.

after go so high, it's time to take a breather. maybe go sideways for a while. there could be a pullback later, but no worries. that's the time to buy

Public Holidays There are no public holidays for Singapore, Hong Kong, China and the USA in the coming week. Economic Calendar (08 Jan 2024) Notable Highlights CPI data should be hogging the headlines in the coming week as a key consideration for the Fed coming interest rate. CPI is a reflection of inflation in the economy. If the inflation proves to be stubborn, the plans for a Fed pivot can be delayed. Initial Jobless Claims - This reflects the impact of unemployment, a data point for the Fed’s interest rate decision. Crude Oil Inventories can be seen as forward indicators of market demand and consumption. If the trend of excess inventories continues, this is demand erosion that can lead to reduced production & weakening consumer spending. PPI can be seen as a prequel of inflation

In my opinions, the “January Effect” is a seasonal increase in stock prices that occurs in the month of January. Analysts generally attribute this rally to an increase in buying, which follows the drop in price that typically happens in December when investors, engaging in tax-loss harvesting to offset realized capital gains, prompt a sell-off. Another possible explanation is that investors use year-end cash bonuses to purchase investments the following month. However, it is important to note that the January Effect is a perceived seasonal tendency and not a scientifically accurate measurement. The January Effect is theorized to occur when investors sell losers in December for tax-loss harvesting, only to re-buy new positions in January. The effect seems to affect small caps more than mid-

PCT: January Effects Or Not V10.0 . PCT = Pandas Coffee Talk. What goes up in Christmas Rally. Tendency people profits-taking in January Effects. But this time in Jan2024. It becomes a opportunities. Why? CNN Fear Index shows extreme greeds. The market stock breath have turned from 7Stocks of Magnificant7 into 3000Stocks. Fed in 2024 even she dont lower rates but she confirm will hold rates. All this points to a Jan2024 tiny firesales due to Japan Earthquake into a min small bullruns in 2024.

Yes it will come, the 2nd half of the month will be better, after inflation data comes in

Ha! Markets are psychological by nature. investor unease breeds investor unease. optimism breeds optimism

Likely will continue this Jan effect. Will just wait Feb to see if there is an upturn. But if prices are good will just DCA an amt.

I believe in data.
